APS New IWC Portugieser 7-Day Power Reserve – Evolution in the Details
The newly upgraded IWC Portugieser 7-Day Power Reserve (New Portugieser 7-Day) stays true to the series’ iconic design language, while refining nearly every detail. The large case, paired with signature Arabic numerals and elegant leaf-shaped hands, remains unmistakably Portugieser—but the real surprises lie in its thoughtful refinements.
Among all the upgrades, the one that impressed me the most is this meticulously crafted version by APS—every improvement is purposeful, sophisticated, and elevates the wearing experience.
1.Case: Subtle Slimming, Elegant Transformation
The new Portugieser maintains its 42.4mm case diameter, but the thickness has been reduced from 14.1mm to a sleek 13mm. This seemingly small 1mm change makes a world of difference for a dress watch.
13mm is often considered the threshold between “refined” and “bulky” in the world of timepieces. By trimming the thickness, the new Portugieser offers a more comfortable fit on the wrist and finally sheds the criticism of being “thicker than a dive watch.”
2.Crystal: Domed Sapphire, Beauty from Every Angle
To achieve a sleeker profile and enhanced wearing comfort, the new model features a domed sapphire crystal. This subtle curvature not only provides more space for the hands to move freely, but also enhances the overall visual appeal with added depth and clarity.
What’s even more impressive is that the APS version also uses the same domed sapphire crystal on the case back, allowing a fuller and more immersive view of the beautifully decorated movement. Both sides echo each other in elegance and craftsmanship.
3.Dial: Subtraction Done Right
The dial also sees a refined design approach:
•The railway-style scale at the 9 o’clock sub-seconds has been removed, resulting in a cleaner and more modern layout.
•The “1” zone in the power reserve display at 3 o’clock no longer features red markings, reducing visual clutter and enhancing the dial’s sense of balance.
These minimalist changes contribute to a more cohesive, understated, and elegant overall aesthetic.
Conclusion: Honoring the Past, Tailored for the Present
This APS-edition Portugieser 7-Day is not just a tribute to an icon—it’s a well-calibrated response to modern preferences in both design and function.
It retains the timeless elegance the series is known for, while offering meaningful upgrades in thickness, crystal design, and dial layout—proving once again that true luxury lives in the details.
Crafted by APS—Only the Finest.
Not just a slogan, but a philosophy embedded in every polished surface and perfected line of this timepiece.
